Pompey Greens at Pride 2025

Aim

We’re raising money to co-host a stall with Trans Pride Portsmouth where we’ll have free pre-loved clothing for the local queer community

For the past two years, Portsmouth Green Party has been proud to host a free clothing stall at Portsmouth Pride. It's been incredibly rewarding to provide our queer neighbours with clothing, shoes, accessories, and pronoun pins, allowing them to express their true gender identity without the financial burden.

This year, as Portsmouth hosts UK Pride, we're determined to make our clothing stall even better – a vibrant, welcoming space where everyone can find something that makes them feel seen and celebrated. However, achieving this vision comes with additional costs.

Today, we are asking for your help so that we can run a double stall at Portsmouth Pride, order pronoun pins (including she/her, he/him, and they/them) that we give away, hire the badge maker from Share Portsmouth to allow people to make custom pronoun pins and hire the gazebo too.

Anything that you can give will be appreciated, but if you’re not in a financial position to donate, sharing this crowdfunder with your friends and family will still help more than you know.

We are also beginning to accept donations of clothing and accessories for our Pride stall, so if you have some items that could be loved again, please contact us via our social media accounts to get your local drop off location*. Or if you have a couple of hours to spare on the day, we’d love some volunteers to staff the stall, with duties including hanging up donations, bagging up clothes, and explaining the purpose of the stall to other attendees.

Please help us show UK Pride what Portsmouth is all about; compassion, generosity, and love.

*For people with disabilities who would face difficulty dropping items off, we will try to arrange a collection.

Costs We Are Crowdfunding For:

• Double Pitch (1/2 cost matched by Pompey Greens): £115
• Large Gazebo (Rented): £25
• Pre-Made Pronoun Badges: £100
• Components for "Make Your Own" Badges: £80

Total: £320

We aim to be transparent with these costs, if you have any questions or concerns please do get in touch.

* We Are Looking To Crowdfund For The Stated Amount Only. Any Funds Above The Stated Amount Are Very Much Appreciated And May Be Used For Our Usual Political Activities Such As Printing Leaflets Or Meeting Room Hire. *

If you pledge £500 or over, you must be on the electoral register - this is a requirement of donating to a political party, so register here if you're not. You must also be willing to provide us with your contact details and address. This is required by the Electoral Commission.

By making a donation you confirm that you are eligible to make political donations in the UK, and that this donation is not made for or on behalf of any other person. All donations received are subject to the regulations of the Political Parties, Elections and Referendums Act 2000.
